STATEMENT.
TRUE
FALSE
The information processing cycle includes the following processes,
input, processing, output, and storage.
2 | The Central processing unit or the CPU is the brain of the computer.
3 |The CPU utilises the computer memory to execute instructions from
the user such as editing a letter, drawing a picture and sorting
numbers,
4 |The processor must be connected only to input devices and output
devices to carry out its functions.
5 | Data can be entered into the system by typing on a keyboard or
pointing some commands with a mouse
6 | Executing refers to the instruction or data item gathered from the
memory in the information processing cycle.
7 | Decoding refers the process of translating a program instruction into
signals that the computer can execute.
8 | Asstorage device is the computer hardware that records or retrieves
items to and from the storage media.
9 [A storage medium is the physical material in the computer that keeps
data, instruction and information
10 | The examples of storage media are floppy disks, USB flash drives and
monitor.[No STATEMENT TRUE | FALSE
